Jon Walters sends message to Stoke fans after they boo Saido Berahino substitution
JON WALTERS has called on Stoke’s fans to get real.
Jon Walters has hit out at Stoke fans for booing Saido Berahino
Stoke have finished ninth in each of the last three seasons and been a Premier League club since 2008.
But four straight defeats sparked anxiety among fans at Saturday’s 3-1 win against Hull and they booed the substitution of Saido Berahino.
“We’re not a top-six team and if you go below the top six there are some big teams trying to get in there spending a lot of money,” said Walters, 33.
“We’ve got to recognise we’re in the Premier League, it’s a tough league and it’s not always going to go for you. We have to try to stay positive.”
